Daily costs for the same EBS volume change month to month

Issue/Introduction

EBS Volumes are charged at a monthly rate so the amount of days in a given month will alter the daily value.

Resolution

This results in a higher apparent daily rate for shorter months like February and a lower apparent daily rate for longer months (monthly total / 28 days vs monthly total / 31 days). The total cost for the whole months should be the same.
